Liquid Analyzer System X80-B88-S88

Electro Chemical Devices (ECD) released its X80-B88-S88 liquid analyzer system, designed for hazardous areas, featuring a sealed explosion-proof enclosure and intrinsically safe sensors. It has a NEMA 4X, IP66 sealed 316 stainless steel design that is FM approved.

This liquid analyzer system provides precise measurement of pH, ORP, DO, conductivity, resistivity or various specific ions. It is ideal for use in oil/gas production sites, refining operations and storage terminals; chemical processing plants; electric power generation; fertilizer production and storage; and similar industries.

The X80 Transmitter is approved for Class I, DIV 1, Groups B, C, D; T4 Ta = -40°C to +80°C; Class I, Zone 1, IIB+H2 T4 -40° to +85°C. The B88 Barrier is approved for Class I, DIV 1 Groups B, C, D; T5 Ta -40°C to +80°C; Class I, Zone 1 IIB+H2 T5 -40°C to +80°C.

The S88 Sensor is intrinsically safe for Class I, DIV 1, Groups B, C, D; T5 Ta = -40°C to +80°C; Class I, Zone 0 IIB+H2 T5 -40°C to +80°C. Versions with ATEX IECEx certification are available.

The transmitter is available as either a single- or a dual-channel instrument for continuous measurement with standard MODBUS or optional HART digital bus communications and three optional alarm relays.

The transmitter features a large (2.75-x-1.5 inch) easily viewable 128-x-64 pixel LCD display with three easily switchable main display screens for data, millivolt and graphics. The display comes with a gray background and black lettering for loop powered instruments or with a blue background and white lettering with LED backlighting on 24 Vdc powered instruments.

Each S88 Sensor contains a B88 Barrier comprising energy limiting devices to comply with FM hazardous location requirements. Connection between the X80 and B88 Barrier is accomplished using flameproof conduit. S88 Sensor connects to the B88 Barrier with a MiniFast Connector with tamper-proof lockout guard.
